its true or false questions

Answer 1

1)

TRUE. Several acton or event based securit wall breakers are malware, spoofing, botnets, DoS (Denial of service) attack etc

2)

FALSE, because cyber crime could be done by just adding an additional program manuall to stole information which does not required any internet or any online service.

3)

TRUE, because there are several event or action based steps taken by the illigal hackers(RED HEAT HACKERS) over internt to modify, stole or to destroy the information. Appart from that infromation transmetted over internet can be lost due to hardware failure. Several other reasons are there.

4)

TRUE, several hardware security tools and software tools are there to protect the devices. Hardware tools to protect the hardware of data e.g. contineous took an eye on load over hardware and balance it. Software tools to protect the software part of device from any illigal or malicious activities e.g. anti virus softwares.

5)

TRUE. Botnets can be used to trigger Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks, send spam,steal data and allows the attacker to access devices in a network.

6)

TRUE

7)

TRUE, it can be formed between any two serviceds or devices and can control one(device or service) not to serve other(device or service).

8)

TRUE, Backdoor is a type of malware.

9)

TRUE. Spoofing is the process of disguising a communication from an unknown source as being from a known or trusted source.

10)

TRUE. You can implement firewall either as hardware or as a software to protect the network and its resources.

11)

TRUE

12)

FALSE, Access controls regulates who or what can vew or use the resources in a computer environment.
